UNSPSC 85713648: Revision of drainage device in right metacarpocarpal joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of drainage device in right metacarpocarpal joint, percutaneous approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 0RWS30Z

UNSPSC 85713648 (Revision of drainage device in right metacarpocarpal joint, percutaneous approach), a Commodity code, shows no relevant recent state and local contract activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure on a hand joint, but state and local procurement records under this code tag do not reflect procurement of that service. Instead, the recent opportunities posted under this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which align with orthopedic hand surgery or the implantable/revisional device work the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the underlying state and local procurement database or that this Commodity code has been applied to health care administration and staffing services without precision. Purchasing professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC code for any orthopedic surgical device or revision-surgery procurement before pursuing opportunities listed under this number.

The geographic distribution of the misaligned records spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (WSDOT), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County), indicating the miscoding is not isolated to a single jurisdiction. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, municipal health benefit plans, state transportation departments, county health systems, and county probation departments. None of these represent active procurement of orthopedic surgical services or implantable devices.
